1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

DegQ is a serine protease that is highly homologous to HtrA, an important virulence determinant of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium. We examined if DegQ is involved in serovar Typhimurium pathogenesis. A serovar Typhimurium degQ mutant was as virulent as the wild-type strain in mice. However, a serovar Typhimurium htrA degQ mutant survived less well in murine organs, particularly in the liver, than a serovar Typhimurium htrA mutant. DegQ is not essential for serovar Typhimurium pathogenesis but may play a small role during salmonella growth at systemic sites.
